“…In a previous study (21), we examined the production of antimicrobial compounds by a diverse collection of Burkholderia bacteria and observed several Bcc strains that inhibited multiple Gram-negative bacterial pathogens, including A. baumannii and carbapenem-resistant strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter spp., and Escherichia coli. Strain R-12632, an unclassified soil isolate from the maize rhizosphere (22) that has been referred to as "Other Bcc group I" and that is closely related to Burkholderia cenocepacia (23), produced a total of 17 specialized metabolites, including pyrrolnitrin, ornibactins (C4, C6, and C8), pyochelin, aerugine, aeruginoic acid, dihydroaeruginoic acid, and ditropolonyl sulfide, and seven potentially novel molecules (21). Through semipreparative fractionation and activity testing, three molecules were found in fractions that inhibited the Gram-negative bacterial pathogens A. baumannii LMG 10520 and Citrobacter freundii R-67508.…”
